rains and the cooler atmosphere are improving
business generally. The scare over light corn
and hog crop is gradually giving place TO be-
lief that to have a fair corn crop, and
that hogs will be plenty. One favorable feature
is that all the manufacturing establishments are
crowded with work and will be kept busy well
into the winter even were they to receive no
more orders This means that the mechanics
will have money to buy the necessaries Of life.
At the same time day labor has been plenty and
tho laboring men. having this season lost
but little time. are laying by something to
carry them through the winter. The
range of prices on many articles is still
high, but as the fall business comes on prices on
many articles which come into large consump-
tive demand will drop Flour will be cheap,
which is an important item, and potatoes will be
lower when the shipment of the fall digging
comes in. In prices to-day there were but few
changes. Coffees maintain the strong tone of
Monday, especially roasted grades. Sugars are
steady. Canned goods have reached their limit
in prices. and are offered much more freely than
ten days ago. The wool market is dull and
prices weak. Indications are that the buyers
who rausacked Indiana and Illinois for wool of
the last spring clip and paid such prices they
did are to be left, or at least they will make
very small margins on their purchases. Pro-
visions are firm and moving brisky in jobbing
